Hey enbutler, thanks for the tip, might have to try it out. Also I can't believe you AF still hasn't showed her ugly face! that is so weird... maybe you have completely missed your period... if you had AF on time what cycle day would you be at now? I was just thinking there is a posibility you might have ovulation spotting rather than AF if you completely skipped a cycle... just a thought. either that or you are pregnant but just have low hcg..

@Gracey if AF came on time i would be on cd10. possibility it could've just been ov spotting. idk what to think right now. been having some unusual dreams as well, like vivid ones for the past week.

I have hyperthyroidism, before i found out and started taking med, i was getting pg symptoms quite often, but once i got on the meds this year and back on my bcp i was totally fine, my cycles were ranging from 25-28 days and now i'm on cd42, so it's very strange. i'm really hoping i'm prego and its finally my time. i've had baby fever for like a good 3 years or more now. i come from a very fertile family and lucky me i gotta get the hyperthyroidism and be the less fertile one..but anywho not sure what's going on.

Just want to say hidy & I'm still stalking.

Hi ladies, i'm no longer backed up (sorry tmi). i feel much better as far as that goes.

Here's a quick update, still feeling pressure in my uterus and some twinges and small pains on both sides of my ovaries kinda switching sides every now and then. my lower abdomen/uterus area feels like little bubbles in there sometimes with small pulls in my uterus every now and then, boobies are not sore, but nipples are sensitive. still absolutely no sign of AF. What you thinking now??

@enbutler-It's always possible. But then again, some women will miss periods on certain birth control. Your best bet is to go to a clinic that will do a free bloodtest or at least cheap. If you are pregnant, the birth control isnt good for baby. Dont stop it til you know though cause you need the folic acid in the birth control (that's if your bc has it).

@MNJ- Welcome! I read your story...I have PCOS too and ttc has been exhausting. I've had 3 mc's and dont OV on my own so I need clomid. I understand your pain. PCOS is a BUTT! I was hopeful I was pregnant for almost 3 months before I was diagnosed. With your hormones being so out of whack, like you said it's hard to tell if you are pregnant or if you OV'd at all. I hope you did! Keep us updated.

@waiting. i'll see what i can do about a clinic. i do want to find out as soon as possible. The feeling i have is very different from past feelings. Hmmm...

enbutler keep positive, we're all here for you unfortunately i don't have any more guesses tho sorry.
Quick question though, has anyone used first response opk's? I'm using them this cycle and according to my days i'm due to ovulate on Thursday (it's tuesday here in Aus) and I still got a neg opk this morning. Should I be seeing a darker line by now? or not until the actual day? My line this morning was the same as one i took two days ago :( also I can only use my first morning not my second morning because I have to be at work by 8am and don't pee again until i get to work, would this affect my results?

@gracey thanks for the comfort. I am sooo hoping this is it.

never used opk's so sorry, can't answer that question.

Ok new thing happening that i just realized. my right leg has been falling asleep super easily, whether i'm sitting down or laying down. it's been happening for the past 4 days or so..also today much more twinges happening on both sides and more pressure in my uterus with some little pulls there. small little pains like quick sharp ones happen as well. anyone experience this before?? and my dog is usually clingy, but for the past couple weeks he's been super duper uber clingy and won't leave me alone, he even tries to get in the shower with me!!

Omg. I love reading this stuff on here. It really helps and gives me hope either way. I am 18 dpo. So yes, I'm late. Light spotting pinkish when af excepted. Only mild cramps. Ok. So here's the deal: no health problems. 3 day fsh 9.6, LH 6.8. I have two healthy grown kids. Got divorced a few years ago after I found out a lot of bad things. Water under the bridge. He is out of my life. Praise the Lord. Started seeing my now EX boyfriend back in October 2012. We broke up early June got sorta back together (especially sexually) early July. I have many many symptoms, including my now missed period which is pretty much always on time. I also had an injury right after the last time we were together (as I am normally very active). So I have been resting a lot. I guess I kinda knew something so I was too clingy with boyfriend and now he seems to only want to be friends. I know he wants children and I think that is one reason that we broke up. Idk. The catch (or is it?). I am 45!!! I do not look it or feel it and all of my labwork is normal. Like a 30 yr old. But I didn't think I could get pregnant! Thoughts? Oh btw I took two hpt last was on Sat. Both bfn. Good luck to everyone! Oh and if I find out I am pregnant should I tell him? I will keep the baby of course.
